| Abstract: | The goal of boosting creativity and productivity in knowledge-based teams is shared by managers in technology-oriented companies and industries. This paper assesses the nature of team performance and creativity in the context of computer-supported technology. A field study of a Seagate Software project team provided the basis for the examination of 4 sub-teams' overall functioning and creativity. Results are varied, revealing less reliance on computer-aided support and more on social support. Creativity was recognized and supported, but at times hampered. |
